We dove into a discussion around significant trends in the container space, how open technology relates to containers and looked toward the technology’s future. We also previewed next month’s DockerCon, which is set for June 19-21 in Seattle.

Highlights! We think containers will be considered MORE SECURE next year and also have some comments about the linguistic shift from Docker to CONTAINERS.”

Here are my notes from the recording with time stamps if you want to skip ahead:

00:35 – What are the trends in Containers?

Rob: We are still figuring out how to make them work in terms of networking & storage

Dan: There are still a lot of stateful work moving into containers that need storage

Phil: We need to use open standards to help customers navigate options

2:45 – Are the changes keeping people from moving forward?

Phil: Not if you start with the right guidelines and architecture

Dan: It’s OK to pick one and keep going because you need to build expertise
